Basidiobolomycosis is an infrequent fungal infection. It is largely a subcutaneous infection and its gastrointestinal involvement is an uncommon phenomenon. Herein, we report the case of gastrointestinal basidiobolomycosis in a 45-year-old Saudi woman who presented to the clinic with a three-week history of abdominal pain. Although infrequent, however, gastrointestinal basidiobolomycosis should be contemplated in patients presenting with abdominal pain, hematologic eosinophilia, and inflammatory gastrointestinal mass.
蛙粪霉病是一种罕见的真菌感染。它主要是一种皮下感染,胃肠道受累是一种不常见的现象。在此,我们报告一例45岁沙特女性的胃肠道蛙粪霉病病例,该患者因腹痛三周前来就诊。尽管罕见,但对于出现腹痛、血液嗜酸性粒细胞增多和胃肠道炎性肿块的患者,应考虑胃肠道蛙粪霉病。
